I'm not sure this is a valid test.  Your test validates that you can
change mirrors while using the same release tag without issue (which is
absolutely 100% true).  What I'm mainly describing is what happens when
you change release tags without nuking /usr/src.  Staying with one
release tag and "reverting" to an earlier version number works fine.
